Ive had the car for about a month now and I must say I cant be any more happier with it.

It drives totally different than the turbo, foot down and power is delivered straight away,

no more waiting around from turbo lag!

Its a complete package with just the right amount of power to put a smile on anyones face,

and saying that, she is one fast car! The verble of the V8 cruising down the highway is music

to ears and when you but the foot down and a sudden scream of the supercharger gets

everyones attention.

Future plans are not all that high at this stage, looking around for some new wheels for her

22's on the rear and 20's at the front will finish it off just nicely. An engine managment system

is also in the books.

Got some pics taken last Friday so here are just a few with more to come soon.

How well done is the right hand conversion ?

Does it have the steering rach and master cylinder on the right as weel, or are they running on the left ?

The conversion process is the only thing that would turn me off getting one.
